2011-2012 Audi Q3 review
The TFSI engines in the Audi Q3.Dynamic efficiency.
The two petrol engines available in the Audi Q3 benefit from our award winningTFSI technology. What makes the technology so remarkable is that it combines the advantages of FSI with those of exhaust-gas turbocharging. This combination not only enables outstanding efficiency and dynamics, but also improves engine power.
The performance of both TFSI engines is further enhanced by Audi's legendaryquattro permanent all-wheel drive. At the heart of this system is a hydraulic multi-disc clutch which diverts the forces from the front to the rear axle at lightning speed if required.
The Audi Q3 2.0 TFSI is available with 125 kW and 155 kW. The Q3 2.0 TFSI 125 kW generates a maximum torque of 280 Nm, which remains constant across an engine speed range from 1,700 to 4,200 rpm. It has an outstanding combined consumption value of 7.3 l/100 km. The more powerful version with 155 kW amazes with its maximum torque of 300 Nm. This enables the Audi Q3 to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.9 seconds and reach a maximum speed of up to 230 km/h. The basis for the exhilarating driving experience is the combination of quattro permanent all-wheel drive and dynamic 7-speed S tronic transmission.
When the driver selects the efficiency mode of the optional Audi drive select, the S tronic transmission opens the clutch during coasting, which further reduces fuel consumption.
